Stockton tips McIlroy for full set of Majors

Short-game guru Dave Stockton believes he’s become more of an adviser than an instructor to triple Major winning Rory McIlroy.

Stockton has been working in tandem with McIlroy’s long-time coach, Michael Bannon, since shortly after McIlroy’s 2011 Masters meltdown.

And the input of the now 72-year old Stockton reaped immediate dividends with McIlroy rebounding to capture the US Open by eight shots at Congressional where Stockton won the PGA Championship 35-years earlier.
